My Review:

Always an absolute joy to read the next book by Rosie Clarke, and this time is no exception at all. I love the characters we are introduced to each time, Martha is a character I took straight to heart. Her life is turned upside down by a really nasty accident; she’s left with debilitating migraines which sounded horrific. I really did feel for her!

The accident always puts pay to her dreams, putting them to one side as she doesn’t believe in her own abilities anymore.

I think some really serious and important issues are touched within Martha’s story; of course physical health, mental well-being and self esteem are key issues for her character.

A new job brings a new colleague who helps her see things in new ways. She is a fab character, I loved their friendship.

I enjoyed seeing how Martha’s relationship with Logan develops throughout this story. They met and instant chemistry, so exciting to read. There was a change to the relationship after her accident, but slowly and surely it was clear to see that the chemistry was still there. Even with the love to hate character, Lila, around always involved, trying to cause problems and being a nuisance!

It’s always nice to catch up with this series, this is the 20th book from Rosie Green now and it’s down to her brilliant writing and well developed, likeable characters that mean this community goes strength to strength.

I always look forward to the next visit and welcoming more characters to the series.
